Hi there -
I've been reading all these threads for a while, mostly lurking in the background until now. Everyone here seems super helpful. I've been to an Expedition Trophy (2008) event in AZ with a friend, so I've had a basic introduction to this community. I finally was able to grab a Tacoma of my own recently, this one is a 2006 v6 SR5 Double Cab 4wd, all stock right now except for a cap. I've gone underneath to look at the differential, pretty sure it's open. (Limited slip is optional on SR5, right?)
I don't have much of a budget for making the improvements that I need to do to have a nice overland vehicle. My ultimate goal is to have a vehicle that appears mostly straight-forward, but is capable of some adventures when needed. I don't need it to look like I'm doing serious expeditions just yet.
Now that you have all the details, I was wondering if some of you experienced folks could maybe give me some advice on priorities: that is, where should I start? If there was one thing I should mod first, what should I start to save up for?
Thanks!
